1 HIV/AIDS Coordinating Committee, HACC DAIKU CAMBODIA ADVOCACY STRATEGY ( ) Country Background information on HIV: Cambodia has been seen as a country which has been able to halt the HIV prevalence. HIV prevalence in the adult population aged 15 to 49 was estimated at 0.9% in 2006 from 1.2% in The estimated number of people living with HIV was 67,200 in 2006 out of which 35,000 were women and 32,200 were men. With data concerning the Most at risk populations (MARPs), HIV prevalence among female sex workers also showed a decrease from 21.4% in 2003 to 12.7 in Prevalence data are not available for male sex workers as this high-risk group was not included in HIV surveillance studies. The 2005 STI Sentinel Surveillance (SSS) included for the first time MSM as a sentinel group. SSS 2005 surveyed MSM in Phnom Penh and in two provincial towns (Battambang and Siem Reap). The 2005 SSS found that HIV prevalence was highest among MSM in Phnom Penh (8.7% against 0.8% in the two provincial towns) and among transgender groups (7.9%, against 2% for non-transgender MSM). HIV prevalence was especially high among transgender groups in Phnom Penh, which was estimated to be as high as 17%. The 2006 Report on Illicit Drug Data and Routine Surveillance Systems in Cambodia prepared by the National Authority for Combating Drugs (NACD) includes data gathered by two NGOs working with drug users in Phnom Penh. Data shows that 14.3% of a total of 63 injecting drug users tested during the first six month of 2006 was HIV positive. In 2006, 311 HIV-infected pregnant women received antiretroviral to reduce the risk of mother-to-child transmission. In 2007, this number increased to 505. The PMTCT program of the National maternal and child health centre (NMCHC) estimated the number of HIV-infected pregnant women (the denominator) at 4,417 for 2006 and 4,509 for These estimates are based on Ministry of Health estimates concerning the number of expected pregnancies and a 1.1% HIV prevalence among pregnant women. Access to ART increased due to the expansion of the number of ART centers from 30 to 48, while the number of facilities with pediatric ART doubled. In December 2005 a total of 12,247 were accessing ART out of which 11,168 were adults and 1,079 were children. But this number rose to 25,353 in September 2007 with 22,981 adults and 2,372 children. By September 2007, 78.7% of the estimated number of adults with advanced HIV infection received ART, up from 60.9% in December (Ref: Cambodia National UNGASS report,2008) 1
2 Cambodia s National Strategic plan ( ): Cambodia s National Strategic Plan for a Comprehensive and Multi- sectoral Response to HIV/AIDS , or NSP-II, builds on the first National Strategic Plan and includes specific objectives, strategies, and an operational plan with broad activities of all stakeholders, from government, the private sector and civil society. The NSP-II has been developed in a participatory manner, through review and revision of the first NSP. The overall process was chaired by the National AIDS Authority; supervised by a Core Group consisting of national stakeholders, development partners, civil society organisations and people affected by HIV/AIDS. The overall goals of the National Strategic Plan are: 1. To reduce new infections of HIV; 2. To provide care and support to people living with and affected by HIV/AIDS; and 3. To alleviate the socio-economic and human impact of AIDS on the individual, family, community and society. Strategies/objectives of the National Strategic Plan: 1. Increased coverage of effective prevention interventions and additional interventions developed 2. Increased coverage of effective interventions for comprehensive care and support and additional interventions developed 3. Increased coverage of effective interventions for impact mitigation and additional interventions developed 4. Increased capacity of government sectors and civil society at central and local levels to respond to HIV/AIDS 5. A supportive legal and public policy environment for the HIV/AIDS response 6. Increased availability of information for policy makers and program planners through monitoring, evaluation 7. Increased, sustainable and equitably allocated resources for the national response The guiding principles of the NSP II mentions, i) Multi-sectoral responses and partnerships ii) Human Rights iii) Empowerment (iv) Gender equality v) Community involvement vi) Involvement of people living with or affected by HIV/AIDS vii) Linking HIV to poverty and overall development planning. viii) Basing strategies on evidence (viii) Harm Reduction It is worth making the connections and identical areas in between the NSP II s strategies/objectives, guiding principles to the issues that Daiku Cambodia has 2
3 identified in the Common advocacy agenda. This will possibly allow ensuring that the work that Daiku Cambodia and its members are doing is in line with the strategic objectives of the National program and at the same time gives the space to base and reliance of the advocacy efforts. Priority issues Daiku Cambodia will address: Issue 1: Limited access to socio economic opportunities amongst PLHIV and Most at risk population (MARPs) to mitigate impact of HIV and AIDS. Issue 2: Stigmatization and criminalization of PLHIV and MARPs. Issue 3: Limited access to quality HIV and other health related services. Issue 4: Address the capacity building needs of PLHIV and MARPs. (The Common advocacy agenda of Daiku Cambodia provides comprehensive list of issues that Daiku Cambodia members discussed) Brief Issue analysis: Impact mitigation: With the global economic downturn and even before the downturn, PLHIV and MARPs have been facing acute constraints, both socially and economically, trying to address survival and livelihood options. With private sector opting out from retaining work force and continuing business, the people who are sick and vulnerable are in the first line of fire. The PLHIV community already has been facing constraints to meet the needs financially to monitor the health and upkeep the immune system. With lack of services from the government for monitoring the disease progression, the cost of the monitoring ones health has become an individual subject and not a state subject and PLHIV have to borne the cost by themselves. With no source of income and lack of skills, the PLHIV are already facing acute impacts of living with the Virus. The cost of the family and running he families, especially in cases of woman led household has been immense. If the disease is to be targeted and community participation in the process of achieving universal access is a must, than the mitigation of the impact, both social and economical, has to be addressed. This is particularly true in Cambodia as a low income country and many of the PLHIV and MARP community lacking economic opportunities to sustain their livelihood. The guiding principles of NSP II also talks about linking/integrating HIV to all poverty and development programs. Stigmatization and criminalization: The Cambodian National strategic plan mentions about supportive legal and public policy environment for the HIV/ADS response. However, legal policies like the Drug law and Anti human trafficking law prohibits and does not provide a conducive environment for people to access services. Given the fact that Cambodia has a large number of Injecting drug users and Sex workers (Unofficially) the need to involve the drug users and sex workers to be participative and addressing the halting of the epidemic is unaddressed because of such legal policies in place. Many of the drug users for example are not freely moving around to access the harm reduction services viz. clean Needles, syringes, methadone etc. The implementation of such services is also limited to the capital city and also 3
4 administered by the relevant government ministry. Though the guiding principles of the NSP also mentions that the Law on control and prevention of HIV and AIDS endorses the principle of Harm reduction and respect the behavioral choices of each individual, the reality of seeing this in the ground among the MARPs seems to be grave. Without bringing in real legal reforms to allow MARPs to access services freely, achieving real Universal access by 2010 for Cambodia, would be severely constrained. Access to quality services: The Cambodian achievements against the Universal access targets and indicators as reported in the 2008 UNGASS report has been quite impressive. However, the ground impressions on accessing the services in a quality manner are doubtful. During the face to face discussions on the development of this document the PLHIV community was very strong arguing on the fact that there are issues of state of stock out of ARV in provinces, being provided with expired ARV drugs, stigma in the health care settings, Lack of Opportunistic infection (OI) medication, Harm reductions services etc. This could mean that the ground reality and the conditions and services that MARPs are facing in the ground is a stark reality with the numbers given as achievements in the UNGAS report. In certain cases, some of the PLHIV were given less number of medication that he/she would require for one month. If the person does not count it before in the AR center, he/she may get lesser number of drugs then what he/she would need for a month. Numerous probable reasons were cited for this. However, the position from both the sides needs to be confirmed with clear evidence on the ground. The PLHIV and the MARPs were clearly not happy with the quality and accessibility to the services that were being provided in the government sector. With the global economic downturn and large global mechanisms like Global fund lacking its financial availability against the requirements, the need for the government in Cambodia to ensure that the HIV services will not be stopped should be ensured. If the global fund runs short or other donor communities in Cambodia withdraws, what will happen to these existing services. Capacity building needs: The need for the MARPs and PLHIV to involve in the national response to HIV has been much talked about. However, the limited skills and knowledge that many in the MARP and the PLHIV community have inhibits themselves to participate effectively. With the generation and current work environment mainly depending on the internet and virtual tools the community members would need to keep up to that. They also would need to understand the international and regional level response, commitments, laws, legal reforms undertaken and also see how the laws in the country are affecting them. Such information and capacity building process will allow the community to effectively participate in the every level of the national AIDS response. Without these capcity building efforts, the community will not be able to relate, articulate and participate effectively in the national level processes. 4
5 Further, other skills on virtual tools and managing internet based tools and information, computer usage skills are also some examples which may sound simple to other people but is a need for the community members to effectively participate.

Audience or key targets: Key appropriate target audiences will have to be chosen when the activities advocating for the issues in the common advocacy agenda of Daiku Cambodia is drawn up through a proposal as indicated in the action plan. a) Relevant Ministries (MoH & MoI), NCHADS and NAA. - With the relevant ministries and nodal agencies in the response to AIDS in Cambodia, it is inevitable and apparent that they are brought to the common table and made aware of the difficult situation which will allow them to initiate action and mitigate impact at minimal time. b) Police and local authorities - With the local law enforcing agencies playing a critical role in application of the laws and policies and are the people who have direct interface with the community, it is important to involve them and take them into confidence. 7
8 c) General community - The general community s support in the movement of MARPs and PLHIV to raise awareness or to implement advocacy efforts is a key ally at the same time a target. The support from here will enable the MARPs and PLHIV to boost morale and social support system. d) Other NGOs, not working in HIV field but in development sector. - As also indicated in the national strategic plan, response to HIV has to be integrated in other health and development responses. There are many other NGOs who works on livelihood, Development, skill building and other aspects that can contribute effectively to mitigate HV related impact. e) Private sector and trade unions. - With immense workforce in the time of globalization and growing economy, the demand for skilled manpower has been on the rise. However, PLHIV or MARPs, who lacks skills or keep up to the pace of other equally skilled workers are generally susceptible to different repercussions or consequences. Thus taking the private sector or their trade unions in different capacities into confidence and involving them is critical. f) MARPs and PLHIV -The MARPs and PLHIV themselves would need to play an integral role of concerted effort and togetherness if the advocacy efforts are to succeed. Experiences have shown us that fragmented approaches to any issue has not worked, whereas when there is a collective voice and the effort is concerted, it did. g) Parliamentarians and senate - The support in the national parliament or provinces platforms is always a needed move to support the advocacy efforts. Political influence does play a great role in ensuring that the laws and policies are re-looked and pressure is built throughout. h) National Centre for TB and Leprosy (CENAT) Resource required: With Daiku Cambodia having no resources at the moment, the existing members and its technical skills and available support to make it kick start its work, is he main resource. Each member has a specific degree of importance and responsibility in all the activities that has been planned in order to address the issues in the common advocacy agenda. The Partnership coordinator played in important part earlier as the point of communication of al partners and also being the person who coordinates all the activities and liasoning between the members. 8
9 With Daiku Cambodia eforum running, having 947 members, representing community, Civil society of Cambodia, Government, UN, INGOs, the eforum and its set of moderators is considered as a resource that could affect change if engaged at the right time with the right support from all partners. eforum moderator The HDN Key Correspondent (KC) team, which also documented the 3 rd National AIDS conference in 2008 and also key grassroots level issues is a key link between Daiku Cambodia and the community and MARPs that it represents. The stories from the KCs can also be supported by documentary, photo, video and audio evidences for effective advocacy. A key resource that is required is collaboration with the donors, tapping their technical resources and also financial support to carry out the activities. Key allies or partnerships required: a) INGOs, UN and co sponsors in Cambodia b) National NGOs working with MARPs c) Government counterparts. d) Journalist and media (Journalist club of Cambodia) e) Human rights NGOs ( Human rights action committee) f) Lawyers (CDP- Legal aid of Cambodia, Lawyers league) g) National networks, Individual activist and advocates h) Regional networks ( Purple sky, 7 sisters, APCASO, APN+, INPUD, APCOM, APNSW, APACHA) Action plan: a) Present the whole common advocacy agenda to all members who are absent.- 30 th April b) Get consensus on the way forward. 30 th April c) Develop Roles and responsibilities for each member.- 11 th May d) Develop proposal to address the advocacy strategy and priority issues- 25 th May e) Identify potential donor- 1 st June f) Review and finalize proposal 10 th June g) Submission of proposal for Daiku Cambodia.- 15 th June h) Roll out to address Common advocacy agenda and advocacy strategy- 15 th July *dates are tentative but indicate possible time required and steps 9
